.SH DESCRIPTION
.LP
Call
.I XkbQueryExtension
to check for the presence and compatibility of the
extension in the server and to initialize the extension. Because of potential
version mismatches, you cannot use the generic extension mechanism functions
(
.I XQueryExtension
and
.I XInitExtension
) for checking for the presence of, and
initializing the Xkb extension.
You must call
.I XkbQueryExtension
or
.I XkbOpenDisplay
before using any other Xkb
library interfaces, unless such usage is explicitly allowed in the interface
description in this document. The exceptions are:
.I XkbIgnoreExtension, XkbLibraryVersion,
and a handful of audible-bell functions. You should not use
any other Xkb functions if the extension is not present or is uninitialized. In
general, calls to Xkb library functions made prior to initializing the Xkb
extension cause BadAccess protocol errors.
.I XkbQueryExtension
both determines whether a compatible Xkb extension is present
in the X server and initializes the extension when it is present.
The
.I XkbQueryExtension
function determines whether a compatible version of the X
Keyboard Extension is present in the server. If a compatible extension is
present,
.I XkbQueryExtension
returns True; otherwise, it returns False.
If a compatible version of Xkb is present,
.I XkbQueryExtension
initializes the
extension. It backfills the major opcode for the keyboard extension in
.I opcode_rtrn,
the base event code in
.I event_rtrn,
the base error code in
.I error_rtrn,
and the major and minor version numbers of the extension in
.I major_in_out
and
.I minor_in_out.
The major opcode is reported in the
.I req_major
fields of some Xkb events. For a discussion of the base event code.
.SH "RETURN VALUES"
.TP 15
True
The
.I XkbQueryExtension
function returns True if it determines a compatible version of the X
Keyboard Extension is present in the server.
.TP 15
False
The
.I XkbQueryExtension
function returns False if it determines a compatible version of the X
Keyboard Extension is not present in the server.
